Velour Fabric with UV Printing for Caps
This velour fabric is supplied to a written specification so that reorders match the approved sample. The fabric construction is fixed at quotation stage — base material, the uv printing surface, the 360 gsm and the packing — and held on file, which is what keeps caps consistent across seasons instead of drifting with whatever the mill happens to have in stock.
The usual reason buyers come to us is not price. It is elastic that lost recovery after three washes, or lead time quoted without the plating or dyeing sub-process. Both are preventable once the specification is written down before bulk starts.
